We are swiming in glitter!

Well, we got up late. We had to rent the Jeep, eat and figure everything out. Oh well. We went to the rainforest. Very cool. Beautiful hiking trails. The biggest bamboo I’ve even seen (or imagined). Hiked about a mile to La Mina falls. We got in. Well, I got in first. Ok, it was VERY VERY cold. Once you were in for about 5 minutes it felt good. So Tracy got halfway in. Like I said it was cold! We then took the Jeep to Luquillo beach. It’s a nice beach with kioskos for food. They had this long street in front of the beach. Every place had the same food. I swear there was one cook for every restaurant. So we went to the most crowded on (safe huh?). They called them tacos but they were beef, chicken, fish or shrimp wrapped in tortilla and fried. The chicken one was good. Yes, Tracy had to get the chicken, shrimp and fish one. She didn’t feel very good afterwards. Whoops?! We then went to go on our BioBay cruise. Well, after quick shopping at Journey’s & Pac Sun. Ok, did I mention Puerto Rico is VERY American? Dollar, English and stores. In fact we arrived at the bay cruise early and asked the security guard what we could do. He said, “Shopping at Wal-Mart or you can go get something eat at Sizzler or Wendy’s”. HA! So we went on the BioBay cruise. TOOOOOO COOL! It was a bay that was about 78 degrees. There are these pyrodiniums that when they were moved released two chemicals. When they do they glow. So as you are swimming and the water glows all around you. It was so much fun! Tracy said it’s one of the coolest things we’ve done on our trips. We then went back to the room. We were going from about 9:00 to 11:30. Long but fun day.
